Become so wrapped up in something that you forget to be afraid.

Lady Bird Johnson

Die, very good, but do not make others die. Suicides like the one which is about to take place here are sublime, but suicide is restricted, and does not allow of extension; and so soon as it affects your neighbors, suicide becomes murder.

Victor Hugo

Come live with me, and be my love, and we will all the pleasures prove.

Christopher Marlowe

Summer bachelors, like summer breezes, are never as cool as they pretend to be.

Nora Ephron

To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug.

Helen Keller

I think it is really sad that when people lose their homes they kind of lose their minds too.

Margaret Cho

Jean Piaget

I love the new legal immigrants they want their kids to be safe just like I do.

Lou Barletta

Dave Eggers

Power should not be concentrated in the hands of so few, and powerlessness in the hands of so many.

Maggie Kuhn

Men of lofty genius when they are doing the least work are most active.

Leonardo da Vinci
